Here's a question: in dry, but cold weather, are the summer tires bad with grip?


The Boxster, with proper tires, is night and day better than the 335. I had one and it was terrible in the snow.


Yes, summer performance tires are dangerous in the cold. You will lose traction in an unpredictable way/at an unpredictable time.
